Energy Saving in buildings starts with smart solar shading. By 2050 over 60% of buildings within Europe will be cooled using air conditioning units, using more energy to power the unit and costing more money. Find out how passive cooling solutions can save energy and reduce the need for air conditioning units -https://www.shadeit.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/Solar-shading-saves-energy.pdf

As global warming accelerates, solar shading should be the first solution in the fight against overheating of buildings. A recent study shows powerful results proving that automated solar shading can minimise energy use, reduce the need for active cooling in mid-season and summer, and optimise the use of solar gains during wintertime to lessen the need for heating.
